Thanks for the replys on this subject. I got several
suggestions...
1) Make sure ip_masq_ftp is loaded. I do have
ip_masq_ftp loaded - are there any options that should
be used?
2) Try passive mode. I tried connecting with the
client in passive mode - this failed with a "Socket
Error: no connection". Perhaps there is some
configuration I need to do to the server (proftpd) to
allow this to work.
3) Read the pdf file. What? I have to read something?
:) I will take a look at the document later on.
4) Open up some more ports on the server and configure
the firewall to forward them. I'll give that a shot,
too.
